For information about .condition, .enable, .event, .ntr, and .ptr registers, refer to
Status register set
contents (on page E-1) and Enable and transition registers (on page E-19). The individual bits of this
register are defined in the following table.
Bit Value Description
B0
status.measurement.VOLTAGE_LIMIT
status.measurement.VLMT
Set bit is a summary of the
status.measurement.voltage_limit register.
Bit B0 decimal value: 1
status.measurement.CURRENT_LIMIT
status.measurement.ILMT
Set bit is a summary of the
status.measurement.current_limit register.
status.measurement.READING_OVERFLOW
status.measurement.ROF
Set bit is a summary of the
status.measurement.reading_overflow
register.
Bit B7 decimal value: 128
B8
status.measurement.BUFFER_AVAILABLE
status.measurement.BAV
Set bit is a summary of the
status.measurement.buffer_available
register.
Bit B8 decimal value: 256
B11
status.measurement.OUTPUT_ENABLE
status.measurement.OE
Model 2601B/2602B/2604B: output enable line. Set
bit indicates that output enable has been asserted.
Bit B11 decimal value: 2,048
status.measurement.INTERLOCK
status.measurement.INT
Model 2611B/2612B/2614B/2634B/2635B/2636B:
interlock line. Set bit indicates that interlock has been
asserted.
Bit B11 decimal value: 2,048
B12 Not used Not applicable
status.measurement.INSTRUMENT_SUMMARY
status.measurement.INST
Set bit indicates that a bit in the measurement
instrument summary register is set.
Bit B13 decimal value: 8,192
As an example, to set bit B8 of the measurement event enable register, set
status.measurement.enable = status.measurement.BAV.
In addition to the above constants, measurementRegister can be set to the decimal equivalent of
the bit to set. To set more than one bit of the register, set measurementRegister to the sum of
their decimal weights. For example, to set bits B1 and B8, set measurementRegister to 258
(which is the sum of 2 + 256).
